Description of Junee
Junee is an old railway town in southern
New South Wales and a rural town of about 4000 people located on the Olympic Way 41 km north-east of Wagga Wagga, 53 km south-west of Cootamundra, 444 km south-west of
Sydney .Junee retains a rather old-fashioned air due to its awnings, verandah posts, hitching rings, old-style buildings and wide streets . Historically, Junee was a major railway centre and the railway line still runs adjacent and, occasionally, across the main road, straight through the CBD. However, the decline of rail services in country NSW has meant the virtual extinction of the railways as a force in the local economy.
At Junee is The Roundhouse Rail and Transport Museum, at the southern end of town,The museum has been constructed around the huge 32-metre train
turntable. When the roundhouse was built in 1947 it was the largest circular railway roundhouse in the Southern Hemisphere. The museum is ideal for train enthusiasts with extensive exhibits including a wooden mail van, a number of locomotives, a steam crane which is still in working order, a breakdown van and the original workshop which was so large it had 42 repair bay. Junee Station was also a popular stop over for the soldiers on Troop Trains during WWII
